FORGIVE YOURSELF

Dear girl,
Forgiving him isn't how you start moving on. 
Forgiving yourself is. 


Forgive yourself for staying for as long as you did. 
Forgive yourself for trying as hard as you did. 
Forgive yourself for giving him as many chances as you did. 
Forgive yourself for letting him have such control over you. 


Forgive yourself for allowing him to hurt you. 
Forgive yourself for not being able to see the kind of person he really is. 
Forgive yourself for wasting time that you aren't going to get back. 
Forgive yourself for making the effort he never fully appreciated you for. 


Forgive yourself for handing back the pieces of your heart to him each time he broke it. 
Forgive yourself for wanting to make it work so badly that you blocked out the idea of him being toxic for you. 
Forgive yourself for refusing to let it go even though you had every reason to. 
Forgive yourself for loving him more than you love yourself. 


The hardest thing to do is forgiving yourself.
But you can't move on until you're at peace yourself and you stop hating yourself for everything you chose to put yourself through for him. 
Once you forgive yourself, you'll be free.
